No salt or spices? I’d lose weight too💁🏻♀️ bc I wouldn’t wanna eat a second portion 😂
DevilsAdvocate227 lmfao
Pleasure is a really important part of eating, not just nutrients
Word. I wouldn’t want a first portion 🤣
Wouldn’t even want portion one 🥴
Sadly, I think that's the point. Make it unenjoyable so she doesn't want to eat much.
People who don’t season their food should be shunned.
I can understand the oil-scare on a level, but salt and pep? Are they that evil? But cinnamon and cocoa are ok? Isn't it laughable, to say the least?
dude different people like different things. some people like food without extra spices. its fine and it doesn't impact you at all.
I think that was the most terrifying thing for me here. Like girlllll it's okay to season your food. And trust me I've had stuff without seasoning like the beans and rice before and it's way better with seasoning.
@@vv1323 sounds miserable
@@vv1323 oh no i saw her Instagram, and she looks so sickly thin. Her stomach looks like it's has collapsed inwards. Her hip bones are sticking out more than her ass.
Plus she is so orange, is her skin tone that unhealthy she has to cover it up?
Thats a lot of calorie counting for someone who said there’s no need to count calories
Literally came here to type this in!!😆
Sounds like she's orthorexic to me.
Brett aren’t they all🙄 *almost
Exactly what I thought!
She was trying to show that you can get a lot of calories for the amount of money you spend. Also Abbey's out here saying her oatmeal is low calorie, so it helped to have actual calculations at the front imo.
This entire comment section has me gasping for air 😂😂😂🤣🤣 she getting roasted from India to France for the lack seasoning and oil .
😂😂😂😂😂
Emmie is 100% correct on how to eat to live.
@@AminahSpencer I like to enjoy living though. And eating good wholesome delicious properly seasoned food makes living extra enjoyable on top of all the other wonderful things in life. I don't think anyone on such a strict diet is happy to be honest.
@@TheTruthHurts6666 Lol I totally agree! The originator of this way of life is Dr McDougall and he encourages treating yourself on special occasions. Also he says nothing about not using herbs and spices! Blandly cooked food is torture 😅😂 But this way of eating had me feeling AMAZING!!!
@@AminahSpencer exactly!
No restriction! Unless you’re talking about salt, sugar, oil, nuts, avocados, etc.....
lol
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Pretty much all flavor.
> No restriction!
Which successful diet has no restriction?
There is sufficient salt from veggies, sugar from fruits, and oils from veggies & ground flaxseeds.
I'm an actual practicing neuro in NYC, and I'm deeply appalled at this woman saying that "you don't need to eat dietary fats for brain health, bc fats don't cross the blood-brain barrier." That statement is wrong. I assure you that fats are VITAL for brain health - the human brain itself is >60% fat! Not only do fats cross the blood-brain barrier, essential fatty acids (EFAs) are needed to properly build the cell architecture (including myelinization) and biochemicals (including neurotransmitters) which are used in the nervous system. EFAs also serve an important function as messengers that signal the body to engage in neuroprotective activities and to start the cascade of reactions to build neurotransmitters, enhance immune function, etc.
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the reality check! I Stan a smart woman who's also a 🐕 lover!
Thank you for sharing. I have been hclf for a while and I just can’t live without any fat. I have massive brain fog and my hormones are all messed up.
As a nursing STUDENT I know this after 1 semester of nursing school...why do ppl speak and teach without education!!!!
THANK YOU! The "whole foods/plant-based" craze drives me nuts, and I'm vegan. There's no reason to cut all oils from your diet. Oils help you absorb fat-soluble vitamins. Fortified foods won't kill you. It can be harder to get certain nutrients on that diet, so why not do everything you can to make that easier?
She’s 100% that girl that tells everyone she’s suuuuccchhh a great cook as her dinner guests are chewing like this nervously agreeing 🥴
I laughed so hard at this
So damn true 😭🤣
💀
she does? like she made a video about it or mentioned it? IDK who she is to be frank
I have a friend pair that are terrible cooks and I always have to smile through the mush!
These are some of the saddest “meals” I’ve ever seen. Poor thing. And all her advice and “knowledge “ seems like it comes out of thin air.
🙁
😂
A high-carb, low-protein, low-fat diet is ideal for maximizing health & life span.
Search PubMed to see how Emily's diet maximizes FGF21.
Any diet that says "high" anything should be a red flag. The body needs balance!
👍
Both "high" and "low"
I guess high fiber is good
Éli S-P A diet that is too high in fiber can cause GI issues.
Sina Ala barely anyone has a high fiber diet - even vegans. it would be nice if fiber was given a little more attention
Am I the only one who thought the term "recipe" given to two or three plain foods sitting on the same plate was a bit of a stretch?
🙁
if ur poor just eat plain rice and beans straight from the can
Lol
I think Abbey was trying to give as much credit as she could while being neutral.
@@luiysia haha no. That is not healthy.
I literally choke-coughed when I saw the amount of cocoa powder and cinnamon she put on the sweet potato!
And why each on a different side of the potato? Why not every distribute them?! Yuck!
W w w w ww w what I'm not up to that yet.. I don't think I could deal with a... cinnamoned potato
My guess is she mashed the chocolate and cinnamon into the sweet potato really well. It doesn't look good as-is though, I agree.
Please world, please know that are lots of vegans who eat normal, balanced, regular meals that contain yummy foods, and there are so many amazing convenient foods that are vegan! Just because you are plant-based it vegan does not mean you have to eat this way! You can still enjoy food!
> cocoa powder and cinnamon ....
I usually dip each ripe banana slice in cocoa powder. The sweet and bitter is a pure delight.
On days where I don't eat enough bananas, I dip my sweet potatoes in cocoa powder also.
Me: watches her put canned beans straight on her plate with no cooking, seasoning, or even salt
Me: *cries in latina*
Edit:
Wow I've never gotten so many likes on a comment 😭 I just wanna thank my mom for being Latina and raising me on well seasoned beans so that I could make this joke. And glad to see so many people agree that this use of beans is a SIN 😂
Hahaha totally!!
Same
Yeah I know what you mean. My family is from the south so you know how we get down. I screamed too.
Exactly. I highly doubt spices make u fat 😳 any spice would do god's sake 🙏
That is unforgivable 🤦🏼♀️
I’d love to see some reviews of more “normal” vegans, like Madeleine Olivia, Nikki Vegan and Liv B 💛
On the list!
And pick up limes! TH-camrs that seem less concerned about weight loss
Id love Nikki vegan!
Abbey Sharp id love to see a review from my fav Australian vegan - Tess Begg!
Love Madeleine Olivia ❤️
I would love to see a series on explaining different vitamins and minerals and where to get them from! I feel like there’s a lack in that area with most people
Thanks for the suggestion!
i would love to see this too!! 👀
yes please!
I agree !!
I was naively interested in her program, but the TH-cam Gods intervened and sent me here. Afterwards I commented on her Instagram and someone that moderates her comments started sending me messages and deleted my comment and any others mentioning Abbey. Emmie also messaged me about my "loyalty"?! Such a red flag. Thankful I found this before investing my time/money in her "program".
🙁
Girl she deletes every negative comment anyone posts on her videos. I followed her for over a year and was put in the hospital, and when I told her about it she blocked me on Instagram. And I saw someone comment on one of her videos (since deleted) that they’d worked with her and she promised to be there for them, but when their birthday came and they were suffering with lupus, needing to talk to her about their hunger levels, she ignored them and that was what promoted them to see her in a different light. Narcissistic much? I’m glad you changed your mind!
That's horrible. Sorry you had to go through that.
Megan Kathleen that’s awful;( Did you have to go to the hospital as a result of this diet?
@@megkathleen Oh wow that is really awful!! I'm so sorry you went through that, more people need to start calling out these "nutritionists"
I’ve been doing the half a plate veggies, quarter plate starch and quarter plate protein source. It seems to work ok. I am doing this to control type 2 diabetes.
That’s a great rule for building a balanced plate :) just remember to balance the fats/carbs/protein & to be more open to fruits we call veg: avocado, cucumber, tomato :)
There is a French nutritionist who teaches this was of eating and it has changed my life.
1/4 Protein
1/4 Carb
1/2 Veg
Not limiting fats
Carbs can be rice or bread, but if you want a ton of potatoes and 1/4 plate of broccoli that can work for the carbs and veg. Just keeps meals more balanced and reminds us to eat veg :)
Sorry to rant, just liked your comment!
Every meal I eat is the same set up too. Its the consistency that works, not the actual details. I designed mine to be as nutrient dense and variable as possible. I try not to eat the same food more than three times a week for a diverse gut microbiome and to also not develop food intolerance (happens when you overeat specific foods).
1 fruit
1 green veggie
1 starch (gluten free as I'm intolerant)
2 servings of animal products (both different)
Everything cooked in non-seed oils to keep my omega 3 to 6 ratio down.
The thing is, I do not think about these benefits or why I do it anymore. I just follow my plan and eat. Same plan every single meal. My favorite are my gluten free waffles, broccoli cooked in butter, nectarine, bacon, and eggs for breakfast. I always eat a veggie at breakfast. I feel better that way.
I do this also, but NO animal products. Animal products are high in saturated fat, which makes insulin resistance (and thus type 2 diabetes) worse and also raises blood cholesterol. I eat animal products a couple of times for month for B-12 and as a “treat” and my A1C is improving and when I get my cholesterol tested next months, I’m guessing it will be much lower. Keto skyrocketed my cholesterol and blood pressure as well as my insulin resistance. Now I’m using plant-based to undo the damage.
A high-carb, low-protein, low-fat diet is ideal for maximizing health & life span.

@@tarabooartarmy3654same.
Abbey was STRESSED over the “salad dressing” and I truly cried laughing 😂😂
That was the face of someone who has seen hell lmao
baby food. spot on
Kanyn Crawford i can't believe this emmy went on youtube w her bland, boring recipes! 😂 anyone can throw these foods together. they look totally unappetizing, i understand abbey's reaction 😂
😂😂
That was probably my favourite part lol. Poor Abbey was horrified.
The idea of eating that many potatoes without any dressing/seasoning/even some ketchup is so depressing!
Hannah M yeah made me so sad, I mean not even salt 😭
Potatoes are so amazing and I definitely don't eat enough of them, but no oil, no salt, no seasoning? Hell no.
Pleasure is definitely a really important part of eating, not just nutrients
and gross. Is it even a net gain in longevity if you're stressing over your food and then stressing over its lack of taste!?
@@rebekahyoungers831 You notice that when he ran out of ketchup in The Martian, he went straight to dipping his potatoes in painkillers? That seems like an appropriate response to a plain potato diet.
I think Dr. McDougal, Chef AJ, and Melissa Alexandria explains this way of eating a little better. Usually you start out with non-starchy veggies ie broccoli then have your starchy veggies. You can also add fruit. You avoid nuts, nut butters, and avocado only in the weight loss phase (so this is temporary). So later you can start adding the healthy fats. Oil is stripped of nutrients and refined (similar to the process of refining sugar) which is why it is not necessary to consume. Also, high oil and sugar concentrations make foods highly addictive. This is why processed foods are so addictive and should be avoided when possible.
Great comment.
Agree.
Thank you!!
I am loosing about a pound a week and I include healthy fats in my meals such as avocado, nuts, seeds and coconut milk, coconut oil. it is possible to reduce weight and still eat healthy fats and its better for you health and sustainable.
Amen to this. Dr McDougall is the most important Doctor for food recommendations. I know this lady keeps making fun of the idea of “eat as much as you want” and “no calorie counting”. I don’t know exactly what the youtuber she’s criticizing says exactly, but I eat like Dr McDougall recommends. And those statements are absolutely true! I eat as much as I want. I eat tons of oats! I eat tons of grains and potatoes. I LOVE my food and I’m no longer addicted to food. I have been, all my life. When you eat a wide variety of plant foods, with the majority being grains or potatoes and plenty of veggies and fruits to round them out (including chia and flax and hemp). And some nuts and nut butter to boot, you get plenty of protein etc. Go read the Starch Solution by Dr McDougall. And go read Fiber Fueled by Dr Bulsiewicz. The reason most people can’t get around the whole grains issue, is that they don’t understand the concept of true whole grains vs ultra processed grains - which is the way most people eat them. I have no problem with hunger, or constipation. I found my ideal body weight, and I stay there. Never done that in my life. It’s been a year and a half. And I have helped 6 people change to this way of eating and they have all had the exact same experience as me.
I have been following the starch solution (what Emmies diet is based on) for 4 months. I went from 210 down to 172 and continuing to lose weight. I have noticed a marked increase in my stamina and overall health. My skin in better than it has ever been. My blood work - vitamin levels all is great ranges. Cholesterol has dropped from 219-130. Blood pressure is consistently around 100/60. Best I have felt since my 20s. My dr looked at my blood work and was very impressed. I do get a monthly b12 shot and I get outside regularly for vitamin d. I also have a serving of fortified soy milk in my morning latte to ensure some vitamin intake. My husbands cholesterol dropped 65 points in 10weeks and he recently ran a hills ultra while on the diet. His blood work was also awesome. Best lifestyle “diet” ever.
Same experience as me and I used to weight 300 and now im at 156 lbs all on the starch diet and it a low fat not no fat diet , making sure your fats are coming from actual fruits and veggies high in fat instead of oils.
Your cholesterol drops because you quit eating animal products, not because you cut oil out of the diet or eat mainly carbs. But good if it works for you, i tried it too, and felt hungry all the time, and my food was just super boring and lacking taste without any oil in it. It's all about the amount, not about cutting it out completely :)
@@elisabethhelenejustlucas7687 I feel like it's totally possible to do this kind of diet with just way more flavor. I love kimchi, jams, low-fat dressings and dips that add so much flavor along with different fun sauces and herbs. I think this TH-cam sets the high starch movement back, honestly since her food doesn't look appetizing at all.
@@elisabethhelenejustlucas7687 There's obese vegans who eat oil. Oil is the vegan killer.
@@rachaelgosdin9240 Salt, sugar, MSG, and spices make everything good
Can someone explain to me why some people concerned with "health" or "weight loss" don't season their food? Tons of spices and seasonings have decent vitamin and mineral contents, and I know in this video Emmie is getting her vitamins, but in general why wouldn't you want the flavor? Isn't food more satiating that way? And of course we shouldn't be drowning our food in salt, but would a pinch per meal really kill ya? I can't imagine eating anything that bland...
me neither
100% agree. Seasoning makes all the difference! Although some people need (medically) lots of salt, like myself haha the more salt the better.
Emmie mentions you can add salt to your taste and liking
I've heard of people shying away from seasonings to make food less enjoyable so they eat less. Which saddens me. 😔
Well, in the raw community at least, a lot of them are what's called "natural hygienists." They believe that herbs (aka spices) are toxic to the body.
Hearing her talking about how "much fat" you get from sweet potato, rice and oats makes me absolutely angry. When does that crazy HCLF thing finally end? I'm so fed up as that kind of diet advice is simply dangerous
i agree
Couldn’t agree more, thank you for raising this awareness! 👍🏼
so true. I remember them saying you couldn't even eat oats because they were a higher fat grain 🤯
This is why one shouldn't take advice from just any "nutritionist" on the internet.
A high-carb, low-protein, low-fat diet is ideal for maximizing health & life span.

As a WFPB vegan who has dabbled in eating high starch/low-fat, I am super grateful for this video and the valid science it offers. I felt my blood sugar spiking when I ate this way, and I was always hungry. My hormones were completely out of whack. What a mistake! No macro should be vilified, and I definitely see this mentality as a sign of an eating disorder. I also appreciate that you noted a vegan diet can be balanced--thank you. Yes. I am a very healthy and thriving vegan who doesn't need meat or dairy, but I certainly don't believe "fatty" vegan foods (Emmie's and other low-fat vegans' belief) or plant-based protein will make me unhealthy. I eat probably about 50c/30p/20f and perform well as a weightlifter and runner. It is truly all about balance.
Starch based, low fat is the least restrictive diet so that's why I follow it
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 2 years ago. At the advice of my doctor, I went low carb. My A1C went down, but my cholesterol shot up along with my blood pressure. I also felt horrible because I don’t really like meat, cheese, dairy, or fatty foods very much. They feel heavy in my stomach, make me feel tired, and even make me nauseus. Regardless, I followed her advice for most of the last 2 years and just kept seeing my cholesterol and BP rising and she threatened at my last appointment to put me on statins. I said NO WAY. I am now following a plant-based diet, mostly whole foods, very low fat, and I feel better, my A1C is down, and I have a feeling at my next appointment (in about a month) my cholesterol and blood pressure will be down. I am enjoying this MUCH better, and despite eating 50-100 carbs per meal now instead of 5-15, my blood sugar numbers are consistently getting lower. I even woke up with a 105 morning fasting glucose once, which hasn’t happened to me since my diagnosis!
Insulin resistance is caused my intermyocellular fat (fat in muscle cells, which normally shouldn’t have much fat in them.) This blocks insulin from bringing glucose into the cells, so it stays in the blood. That’s why it’s important to stay low-fat if you’re eating a lot of carbs.
Plus, since carbs have 4 calories per gram and fat has 9 calories per gram, I can eat more food that I personally enjoy (like potatoes, fruit, and veggies) for way less calories.
I’m dying at the beauty shots of this bland food ✨🍠✨
Bland food is the best 😍
😭
Which animals in nature season their foods?
Fun Fact: when the nutritional value of fat was discovered, it was initially called Vitamin F because it's so important for our brains.
Thanks for sharing
fortunately there are trace amounts of fats in fruits vegetables, rice beans oats potatoes...and on and on and on
@@onwednesdayswewearpink2761 oh please😂 that won’t cut it
What types of fat?
@@AbianahBarbie one cup of oats contains 5 grams of fat. So definitely more than the trace amounts that were mentioned earlier in the conversation.
Whenever I'm craving açai bowl for breakfast I'm hearing Abbey's voice in my head saying "Babe, make sure you don't only have carbs, but also some protein & healthy fats." 😂
hahaha thanks!
I do this too😂 every meal I've been making myself I've been asking myself, would Abbey approve? 😂
Oh my gosh, for real!
omg me too! It's like I have little Abbey in my head saying: "I'd like to see some more healthy fats/protein" haha
omg SAME
I'm 66 years old. Back in the 1980s, I was healthiest on a Chinese herbal vegan eating plan. Recently, I became Type 2 diabetic. My blood glucose was up to 300-400. I tried Keto/intermittent fasting. The high fat/protein did nothing to bring down my blood sugar, even on meds. Finally, I tried the high starch, low oil diet. My blood sugar is finally almost normal (just above 100). Even working out daily did not help me. I'm shocked that potatoes, rice, oatmeal keep my glucose in the lower limits. We now eat meat once per day, but keep the dairy and oils low or not at all.
It has been scientifically proven many times that a high-carb, low-protein, low-fat diet maximize insulin sensitivity. Dr Kempner's rice, fruit, fruit juice (and if necessary sugar) diet, saved those with high BP on their way to certain death from kidney disease. He was also sought out by movies stars because of the success that his diet has on reducing obesity.
Emily is a little extra but the simple way of eating and the hclf has been a game changer for me ❤️
Yes, I agree with you! Eating this way, hclf and so simple, has made a huge improvement in my weight and health. I feel light and full of energy. Works for me!
@@halcyon-cg2ebyess queen!!! Hclf is not for everyone but it changes our life ❤
@@halcyon-cg2eb Emily Rocks!
Honestly with the large volume, no seasoning and minimal fat, these ‘recipes’ are a big old throwback to struggling with orthorexic tendencies and makes me both sad and concerned that she is promoting this to such a large audience 😬
I’m sorry that was triggering, it was for me too
Same. Takes me back to watching High Carb Hannah and Freelee around 2014/2015. I was miserable eating that way
Alice Nicolson same actually. I was having terrible inflammation and couldn’t lose weight. I was in so much pain that I switched to an anti inflammatory/omnivore diet and within 6 months lost between 10-15 pounds I just couldn’t lose and rarely deal with inflammation and joint pain. I’ve always lifted weights too and noticed on a more balanced diet I can build muscle much easier. Different diets work for different bodies but I know how my body best performs now. I try to reduce amount of animal products I consume for environmental reasons but I do eat farm fresh, local, and organic meats. Supporting smaller businesses and feeding my body what it needs.
Abbey Sharp it’s not your fault it was triggering.
It's also just unhealthy. Women require higher fat to sustain hormonal health.
That entire food plan makes me furious that the term “nutritionist” is not properly regulated. I’m sure many people will watch this video and think that because she calls herself a nutritionist the information in her video is true without any further research ESPECIALLY all the young, impressionable girls. This makes me furious.
Priscila Esteva agreed
Yes!!! Most people don’t know that there is a difference between nutritionists and dietitians and it makes me so angry. Especially if you have health issues like diabetes that affect how you need to eat, it’s much more appropriate to see a dietitian who is educated versus a nutritionist that possibly has no education on the topic. There needs to be more awareness on the topic to help keep people safe. A meal plan or diet advice from someone uneducated could be highly dangerous. My friend just finished dietetic school and it’s very thorough and they have to do on the job training to make sure they’re prepared. The lack of distinction between the two for most people makes me sad!
I used to be one of those impressionable girls ;( I lost a lot of muscle mass
emmi isn't a nutritionist- ask her. SHE DID NOT GO TO SCHOOL FOR ANYTHING BUT EDUCATION. and a one year health coaching program. it's a sham.
Priscila Esteva Emmie shows actual results from working with real people. Abbey has....dairy sponsors
I follow a higher carb, lower fat “diet”. That being said, this is boring af. You can follow the HCLF lifestyle but still include tahini, nut butters, nuts and seeds while also using salt. All of my salad dressings are tahini, cashew, tofu or even avocado based... you can in fact enjoy those things and lose weight (since that seems to be a focus of her channel/diet). It really isn’t as restrictive as this girl makes it sound. Then again, I’m not a HCLF purist 100% of the time. Yes I’m vegan and strive to eat more whole foods as opposed to processed substitutes but my goodness enjoy a beyond burger with some vegan cheese slices or some pizza with vegan cheese shreds. You don’t have to eat that stuff all the time but having them available to enjoy when you go out to eat and socializing makes life so much more enjoyable. And for the love of all things flavor related, add some seasoning to your food.
She says on her channel that's she's obsessed with food and that's all she can think about. That's a HUGE red flag for eating disorders!
Anybody would be obsessed if all they eat is rice, beans and potatoes
I’m obsessed with food and I don’t have an eating disorder.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
I’m on a weight loss journey right now, but this time I’m really trying to make it work. I haven’t been starving myself like I usually did, I’m feeding myself a lot of healthy and tasty foods that will help me be as strong as possible during my workouts. Your videos and suggestions have really helped me lately in understanding that food isn’t an enemy or something to be scared of, but it’s only what fuels our body and keeps us strong, and we should celebrate that, not loosing a few pounds on the scale that in 40 years we won’t even remember. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge on this platform, you’re doing so much more that you can imagine!
This has been EXACTLY my experience with her videos. Keep up your positivity, friend!
I'm so glad it is helpful! ❤️
This is such a great mentality! Once I started focusing on performance in my training and fuelling my body, it made a world of difference mentally and physically. Good luck on your journey, you got this 💪🏽
Claire thank you so much 💕
Katharine McClain yes I will! Thank you 💕
why don’t these people season their food? healthy food doesn’t have to be bland and boring.
Flavour is so important to satisfaction
I don't get that either.
Some people like the taste of how the food is unseasoned. Sometimes I add seasonings, other times I don't add any.
These type of people are delusional and probably think any type of seasoning on food is "unhealthy".
It's food abuse!
I love that Abbey said "it won't make you feel emotionally satisfied". That is how I feel when I cut food groups from my diet. My body responds best when I consume all food groups. Plus it reduces my cravings.
I appreciate your videos so much! This is one of the few channels that I feel actually explains why it is important to have a balanced diet and also HOW to make that happen. Love the science based entertainment always.
I'm so glad it is helpful!
I love that Abbey is almost salty enough in this review to make up for the lack of seasoning in the menu plan 😂. Do we have this poor girl’s PO Box to send her some damn garlic powder???
😂
@The Vegan hippie While I totally agree that she has every right to eat how she wants and how feels best for her body, but it's much different when it involves nutrition advice on such a huge platform, like the one TH-cam provides. If she's happy with her diet great, but that doesn't mean she gets to be immune from criticism as she is promoting it to others, who it could potentially harm.
OMG 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😢
LMFAOOO 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😅
“Total food freedom! No restrictions!” In the words of the great Inigo Montoya, you keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. 😳

Can you make a video showing us a full week of an ideal vegan diet?
just discovered your channel and i love it :D thank you for making these videos, they're really helpful!!
Why is she counting calories when she said you don't have to?
cause she has already done it so her viewers dont have to anymore😂
To prove that you can get enough
It was an excerpt from a video in which she tries to demonstrate that you can get adequate calories, vitamins and minerals from eating the way she promotes
It was about comparing food prices by calories. These healthy foods are also super budget friendly & she was demonstrating that. Context was removed from the video clips, thus the confusion.
She is very weight and weight loss focused. She used to have some what I eat in a day videos where she just ate like 4 plain sweet potatoes. Her instagram has a lot of body check style photos showing how slim she is. It almost feels like it's a guide for disordered eating without actually starving.
🙁🙁
A high-carb, low-protein, low-fat diet (similar to Emily's & Dr McDougal & traditional Okinawans) is ideal for maximizing health & life span.
See PubMed for how this type of diet maximizes FGF21.
I wish you spoke about the amazing blood results they had while eating this diet too. I have rheumatoid arthritis and my pain is reduced soooo much when I eat lower fat plant based food.
She has zero awareness of anything beyond protein. It’s not on her radar. I’ve eaten like that too for ten years.
@@hannah617 it can work for some and be awful for others. every body is different, google bio-individuality
@@noemarie8 😂
Me too! This diet is a game changer.
I just stumbled upon your channel and CANNOT stop watching/learning from all your content. THANK YOU!
I just need to say I could never be emotionally satisfied from a plain bowl of rice, beans, and tiny bit of little trees on top.
Drizzle some tahini or nut butter on it and I might be able to keep my head on.
seeing this woman's bland ass food is WILD. there are just so many "influencers" on here who seem to know absolutely nothing about the basics of cooking.
agreed
Or salsa something
@@vesibrooker5309 And guac!
She has offended everyone who has ever made and enjoyed actual rice and beans, which is seasoned and cooked in fat.
I would love to see you do review of "what I eat in a day" of Sadia from Pick up Limes 🌿
I'll check it out!
Omg I was just thinking about this. She's my favorite food youtuber!
Sadia is a dietitian as well ❤
My favorite plant based recipes. She discovered hummus for me xD
Agnese Ģērmane yes!! I agree!
Thank you for your presence on TH-cam, Abbey! I appreciate that you are debunking toxic nutritional information like this - there is so much NOISE out here about food and wellness. I love your reviews and I love your totally reasonable scientific approach. You rule!
Hi Abbey, thanks for all your work, did you review the „starch solution“ in general yet? Do you have a good recommendation for vegan meal planning? Love from Germany!
I feel like she sees food as a necessity to meet daily needs and has very little enjoyment while eating. I’d be very depressed eating bland oats, beans and vegetables everyday - and I’m vegan!
Flavour is so important to satisfaction!
Interesting bc i know someone whose sense of smell and taste is not that great and so she doesn't really get much joy from food, never have, so she always says that eating is more of a chore and if she had a way of getting nutrition without having to eat, she would lol
@KaylaJaneNell I feel exactly the same! I need flavour or I don't want to finish something but I will reluctantly. So glad that I watched this before clicking on one of Emmie's video that came up on my recommended feed
Food is fuel .
That’s what food is for.... it’s not to be something to fantasize over or wait meal to meal with anticipation. Food should taste good or else you won’t eat it... but it doesn’t have to be an orgasm in your mouth. If you want that... that’s fine. We are all different. Don’t push your own thoughts on to others. People CAN enjoy this way of eating. Believe it or not.
If ya'll want some real flavourful vegan food there's other cuisines out there like Indian or Turkish etc
Thanks for sharing!
That's what makes this video so sad! Imagine if you were exploring veganism and you came across this channel and thought being a healthy vegan meant you had to eat three goddamn cups of plain brown rice. I want to cry just from typing that, let alone having to eat it. There is such beautiful, delicious, flavourful and healthy vegan food in so many cultures and she's telling people to eat plain oats and steamed brocolli every day.
love your videos Abby - thank you for always sharing the right message xx
There has to be something done about these so called “experts” promoting eating like this. This is so damaging. I can’t imagine my 15 year old self following her. 🤬

If your advice is eat some plain rice, plain black beans and three sprigs of broccoli...I don't need your advice. I can't handle this girl.
K i meAn at least some salt
K It looked like when I couldn’t cook anything in college and just throw together a few things I found in the fridge but even then I used salt
PREACH
That's what I eat when I forgot to grocerie shop and it's Sunday 😹
As a vegan for over four years, I am sooooooo tired of this ultra-vocal minority in the vegan community spewing this pseudoscience. The general population already thinks negatively about vegans, and these types of videos and super restrictive, purity-obsessed diets make my blood boil and reflect badly on even reasonable vegans. I like what you said about how abundance doesn't just have to do with calories. Many people in the HCLF vegan community have pasts of disordered eating, and giving up calorie restriction for a diet that severely limits the number of foods a person consumes seems like trading one disorder for another, all under the guise of "health."
Veganism for me is an ethical choice. People like Emmie do a disservice to ethical vegans by making sensational claims about a particular, highly restrictive type of diet. I worry that people who are interested in a vegan diet will see videos like hers and either be turned away because of its extremism, or try it and fail because it is unsustainable and likely to create health issues in the short or long term.
I eat fake meat, oil, protein, carbs, sugar, fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds. I supplement with B12 and D3, and I do not think that my diet is going to "cure" or "heal" anything. I care about my health and try to have a balanced approach to diet and exercise.
I'm glad that is working for you 👍
Veganism is nearly always the last resort of the eating disordered for many reasons, incuding it's the ultimate excuse to reject nearly every common food, refuse to share in social eating with others, and eat nothing but low cal plant foods. I've seen it time and time again.That's why so many vegans come off as nutters on dietary issues. The most mentally ill ones using veganism as a mask for their restriction are the loudest. Alongside the ones who just want to morally berate everyone not at their own perceived 'purity' level, of course.
that's true but there are a lot of great vegan influencers as well. particularly avant garde vegan
, healthy crazy cool, and pick up limes to name a few
Yes queen! 🙌🏻
Yes! This is my feeling also. I’ve been an ethical vegan for 20 years now and this way of eating looks so sad and gives veganism a bad name. I love me some seitan, fake meat sausages and soyrizo. It’s more easy and convenient than ever to be vegan, so why not enjoy it? Regular people can be vegan and still eat regular meals. My favorite meal to make is vegan lasagna.
I actually like the idea of the pumpkin pie oats- I’d probably add some roasted pecans and cinnamon
Some nut butter on top would be 👌 and would provide essential fat
I make my kids pumpkin oatmeal all the time! They absolutely love it!!
And eat it hot
I've listened to her a bit and the fats would supposedly halt the fat loss/burning potential of these meals. Not saying agree, just saying that's what she theorizes.
Abbey thank you much for these videos, I’m a senior in dietetics now but I spent most of my freshman year thinking that HCLF was totally okay and eating dried fruit all day long. I really appreciate how you take the time to clear up the false internet claims and teach your viewers and I that BALANCE and emotional satisfaction are key✨!!!
Christina Panzarella so glad it’s helpful
HCLF is totally okay if you're not only eating dried fruit all day long. Dr. John McDougall, Dr. Caldwell Esselystyn, Dr. Joel Furman, and many others have much to say about the subject if you want to learn about "balance".
“nutritionist” is a word we all have to be careful of!
MOLLY PELLETIER huh
Alia M anyone can become a nutritionist, it is simply an online test. it doesn't prove any credentials, and can be very misleading. CERTIFIED DIETICIANS have gone through training and school.
Exactly. I've noticed that nutritionists only get hired at local gyms but not dietitians because they have extensive experience and training do a gym will need to pay them a salary of at least 60K. Local gyms can't afford that 💇♀️ They go the cheap route of hiring nutritionists to give bad advice
👍
YES
i love your take on intuitive eating. it has helped me heal my relationship for food. i can now enjoy food and take care of my mind and body
I am the exact same. I'm so glad that now I am trying to eat for health and wellness and I'm so glad to hear other people feel the same. Wishing u a great day ahead!!!💚✌💜💜
Wonderful!
I would love a review of Liezl Jayne Strydom’s “what I eat in a day” + weight loss tips she gives
Abbey had me laughing out loud on this one. The broccoli and potato dinner reminded me of something Gordon Ramsey would have a heyday with. I want to hear the music in the hero shots!! 🤣
Look spices aside, this is terrifying that there people (referring to Emmie) who claim to be professionals online and sell this type of harmful, if not DANGEROUS, misinformation. Yikes.
🙁
@@AbbeysKitchen no no, not you!!! You're an actual professional, just influencers like this who dont really know what they're talking about but try to release books or DVDs or programs just seems so dangerous!
@@hauntedmushroomsasmr7716 Abbey is not a professional. She is a registered dietitian yes, but not practising her job. Furthermore, her recommendations are extremely outdates and not in line with the Canadian rules regarding nutrition.

I’m white af and couldn’t eat any of this bland food 🤢🤮 where’s the seasoning 😭🤯
just because we're white doesn't mean we don't have taste buds, amirite :D
People of European descent also have rich culinary traditions, even peasant, landless people. You're misrepresenting an entire continent.
😂
@@hypatiakovalevskayasklodow9195 yeah I get so tired of people acting like certain cultures own spices and that white people like bland food. Euro cooking is buckets of garlic, onion and paprika for a start. I personally use LOADS of garlic, paprika, cumin, chives, parsley, 4 different types of pepper, chilli, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, garam masala, fennel powder, coriander(cilantro) powder, fenugreek, turmeric, cinnamon, mustard etc
I'm also white and love spicy food I have a huge spices stock and had to build shelfs for it so thats not true. Dont even know why people say white people don't like spice im from Scotland and half the people in my family loved spice
That potato and broccoli plate looks like what your On-A-Diet-Kick Aunt and/or your unexpected vegan plus one would have at Thanksgiving
🙁
😂😂😂😂
I was thinking the same thing. Being vegan I sometimes get stuck eating weird things like that but never by choice in my own house!
Haha, it actually look like one of my go-to easy meals for when i get back late from work and don't want to cook anything complicated. Except i usually sauté the brocoli with garlic and ginger, with some soy sauce, and i buy canned beans in a chili sauce. When you add seasoning it's actually realy tasty, and with a whole brocoli and less rice it's a little more balanced.
LMFAO I can't tell you how many times I actually have had this or something very very similar as a meal when I was a guest at people's homes... The best part was they were expecting me. The worst part is, most people don't season their food properly, I like my potatoes really really salty and my broccoli has to be sauteed with olive oil and garlic so I could never survive eating the way she does here 🤮🤢🤮🤢
Hey! As a nutritionist, I was concern about the lack of balance of this diet, specially if Emmie is also a nutritionist. I'll like to thank you Abby, for your excellent opinion in every theme. Kisses
Yeah it's very concerning, so much so that I'm wondering if she's really an actual nutritionist with a degree and not just girl with a diploma in nutritional therapy.
Glad it was helpful!
Nutritionists are different than registered dietitians in the US because anyone can take an online course to become a “nutritionist”, but registered dietitians have to graduate an accredited program, have clinical experience, do continuing education, and have a license to practice.
@@chamonixb5132 I was wondering that too, does she mention her certifications???
Chamonix B that’s true but you can also become a registered nutritionist and continue studying to become a clinical nutritionist which would give them the legal rights to advice people. These do require a diploma and masters so it is as qualified as a dietitian the difference is it’s a lot more scientific than a dietitian which is mainly working with people nutritionist work witch more research, creating reporting and public health interventions FDA etc... hope this actually brings light to what a proper educated nutritionist does
I really appreciate that you provide research links and inform your audience with scientific facts. It's so important to spread accurate information!
Glad it is helpful!
She’s a nutritionist?? That is terrifying. I live in Japan and I can guarantee her assessment on the diet of Okinawans is missing a vital component... fish. You mentioned Japanese eating fish but Okinawans live on a series of tiny islands, so fish are very much a large part of their diet (so is Spam! Modern-day Okinawans, anyway). The main difference with the traditional Japanese diet is a big increase in fruit on top of the fish, I believe.
Fish and sea vegetables: seaweed, kelp, etc.
She’s a school teacher 😂
The way she says 'Okinawans' - I'm afraid she thinks they're an ancient civilisation like the Mayans and not modern day Japanese people who have access to MORE THAN SWEET POTATOES on the islands 😂
@@RSB1949 I read this comment before I got to the 'Okinawans' part and oh my god you're so right!!!! Like GIRL THEY'RE STILL THERE.
I used to follow these kind of "health gurus" when i was a teenager and i end up with orthorexia and loosing my period for 3 fucking years. So be careful out there
And they will say it's because you weren't carbing up enough.
Sharnee Mac me too! I think I was 15 tho, fucked up my relationship with food even more (I was already showing anorexic tendencies)
I’m sorry if it was triggering, it was for me too
Sad you had to go through that. I hope your in a better place now.
damn this sounds too familiar :(
These are the saddest meals I've ever seen. It's like she's allergic to flavor
Flavour is so key!
The stuffed pumpkin looked so good though! I would totally try that with a couple alterations.
NinthTentacle I would never enjoy my meals... what kind of life is that??? 😞
Taste buds adjust and even very plain foods become delicious.
The combination of rice, beans and broccoli all I could think about was bloating and farts for the rest of my day. I tried the starch solution for weigh loss and I couldn't keep it for more than a month, so much bloating, farts and zero weight loss.
Is it that book "forks over knives"?
@@livics610 no, the book is the starch solution by John McDougall
I think high carb works only if it is low fat. I've seen some ppl not also adhere to it, but also lost weight, given they ate less fat
Yes! I lost weight but my digestion was awful!
Ugh, I know, right???? I have a problem with my intestine (thanks mom for the heritage!!!!) and I bloat like instantly - sometimes it gets REALLY painful!!!! I would die if I followed this diet!!!!
I can't imagine a lot of people being able to adhere to this way of eating. Personally if I ate rice,broccoli,beans all in one sitting I would get so bloated, and no matter what type of carb if I eat a lot in one sitting I get tired and sluggish. You are spot on with the balance is needed. I feel the most energized when I eat a balanced meal. I just found your channel & subscribed. You give great feedback on eating videos, and you seem caring.
I'm so glad it is helpful!
A "nutritionist" giving horrible diet advice? You don't say... I am sure she means well, but there is a reason why people have to complete some pretty intense studies in order to call themselves registered dieticians.
🙁🙁
Let's also talk about how in Okinawa Japan, they stay pretty active and have a very community based lifestyle. Everyone has a purpose and even into their old age, they are constantly staying social with each other and become the grandparents for all the kids of the island. I think those factors also has a big impact on their longevity!
That blue zone diet was nonsense anyway and so easy to debunk. That diet was based on rationing by the US Army right after WW2 and that's where the people claiming Okinawans ate a mostly plant based diet got the food list from for the study, ration cards. They would have found similar in the UK at the time and anywhere else that rationed. They usually eat a lot of pork and fish. But it doesn't suit the agenda to admit that.
Thanks for sharing
They also eat fish and meat. They don't subsist on fucking sweet potatoes. Ugh.
@@tkps my boyfriends family is from there. the fact that she things they only eat sweet potatoes and no fat/protein is crazy. It's an island, they eat tons of fish just like most places in japan. Besides that, most people (including the okinawans) believe their old age and health has to do with the bittermelon they eat, not japanese sweet potatoes.
Okinawans are also the worlds largest consumer of spam
Abbey I love your reviews, they are definitely entertaining 😃💕
As a long term client of Emmie, I am so disturbed by this review. This is an entirely unfair breakdown of her program. Eating this way I’ve lost over 12lbs and most importantly healed my emotional eating. This is just such a rude and judgmental channel.
Emmie: there is no calorie counting with this plan
also Emmie: counts calories for every meal shown
Omg I know!! I thought that too haha
She was doing a special video showing that you could meet your calorie requirement for under a certain $$ per day. In her typical videos, she never talks about calories in the food.
Sarah C exactly. I’ve seen tons of her videos and this is the only what I have ever seen calorie counting. And I’ve also seen her uses spices in plenty of her videos. I think it’s clear that abbey purposefully chose a video in which she is calorie counting to incite controversy.
I did her plan, didn’t count calories. Lost 30 lbs and felt great. And I used seasonings and salt. And cooked interesting food
@@symphonyjohnson1570 yep. exactly. its called cherry picking.
I couldn't not use spices aha
I need seasoning too!
Your able to use all sorts of spices, herbs and seasonings
I couldn’t use spices 😆 we’re like jack sprat who ate the fat and his wife who couldn’t 🤪
Me too!
THANK YOU FOR THE TIP ABOUT BANANAS! I've avoided eating greenish bananas for YEARS because I thought it was bad, but I much prefer a greenish banana over a ripe one. I'm so glad I can go back to enjoying my bananas the way I like them :)
Glad it was helpful!
So what you’re saying about bananas is that less ripe bananas are actually good for you and so everyone that’s questioned my decisions in the past, I can now tell them valid reasons for eating greener bananas? Hell yeah!
Yellow bananas are purely an aesthetic thing.
I always eat the bananas that taste the best (ripe ones, ideally some spots).
"There's nothing we can eat that will affect the pH of our blood." 👏👏👏👏👏 Thank you!

The rice and beans lunch would be perfect if it was 1/3 of the meal, add more veggies (sautéed bell peppers would be sooo good with it probably!) , and some avocado and hot sauce. Otherwise I feel like it looked soooo bland and my stomach would hurt so bad after eating it. Plus it totally looks like something I would’ve eaten in my eating disorder.
same
I also thought a lil hot sauce would make it so much tastier
Yeah it’s clear there’s not a whole lot of focus on pleasure in her eating, it’s all about control :(
I love me some beans and rice! But with some avocado, lots of seasoning, maybe some salsa, bell peppers, squeeze of lime...
Some shredded chicken or canned tuna. . . Chipotle sour cream, yeah delicious
I benefitted from the program and have kept the weight off. The main things that the program helped me with my relationship with food and adjusting my palate to whole foods. I'm starting to believe that different bodies need different dietary needs so you would have to do your research according to your needs. Hope everyone finds what their bodies needs.
I really appreciate you weighing in as a registered dietitian here on youtube. There is a harrowing amount of misinformation on youtube that masquerades as self help or advice, and you do a great job of breaking it down.
Always looking forward to seeing your videos! I am in college and have about 5 years left until I can become a registered dietitian as well! Thank you for constantly promoting FACTS and TRUTH about food.
You got this!
Damn, are these meals supposed to be appetizing?! The lack of seasoning is just depressing. Girl, get yo self some gd salt and pepper
Flavour is so key!
I want to send her an anonymous bottle of Tobasco sauce "from a friend "
I do sometimes add a tiny can of black beans straight from the can to my quick quick wrap meal. Do you all hate me now :')
Its wholewheat wrap, vegetarian' chicken' burger, mixed lettuce, yoghurt dressing and the beans. Made in literally 2 minutes and a life saver
sounds super yum.
Ooh, sounds good! I'll have to try it :)
I loved the info about green bananas! I LOVE green bananas, and I've always felt like I was doing something wrong when I eat them less ripe.
Emmie: "Fat is stored as fat"
Me:" Retro"
😂
Excess fat is saved as fat. Only 75% of excess carbs are stored at fat as the conversion cost energy. But in general, on a high-carb, low-protein, low-fat, very little of excess carbs are stored as fat as most of it get used by the higher metabolic rate. Search PubMed for FGF21.
That beans and rice lunch was the biggest fart fest ever 🤦🏻
🙁
I would not start with that much fibre but your gut will adjust over time. There are some people who can not cope with beans though but you can swap.
@@Test-eb9bj whole wheat bread, brown rice, unpeeled potatoes, etc. is like asking for digestive problems if you are plant based. All this stuff became popular when western diets started eating more and more animal products, and instead of balance they just went from pole to pole, have your meat and your "whole grains" that most people don't eat for good reason, its fiber overload.
I've heard that the more consistently you eat beans, the less gas you produce. That was an anecdote tho so idk if there's any real science behind that.
Omg!!! Thank you so much for this video ❤❤❤❤❤ didn't quite understand how her mums cholesterol was still so high!?!
When I followed Abbeys advice I only kept gaining weight. When I follow emmie I am losing weight and have a ton of energy eating as much as I want.
I follow Dr. Jason Fung's "The Fasting Method" and have lost a ton of weight and don't binge anymore. His method was the only one I've been able to control hunger and cravings on.
I'm glad you found something that works for you. If you're ever curious you should check out Dr. Fung.
That calcium/bone density myth has been debunked so many times. Disappointing to see Emmie boast it to help sell her plan. Even as a vegan, I would never push that as a sales pitch for my way of eating.
🙁
She killed me when she didnt put tahini in that hummus "dressing"
